Jindal is milking this mass killing for all it is worth. He is literally wringing out every drop

of blood just to get his face on television. He actually said he was not going to talk politics during his latest press conference related to the shooting. Yet he IS politicking by the mere fact of making sure his face is present on television at every moment during these pressers. What a despicable person. Governor Haley did not impose or insert herself at every moment. It's becoming about him even though he says it's all about the victims. He described the macabre scene in the theater in detail. Isn't that something a law enforcement person should do? I guarantee you there will be a political ad showing him at the scene of the crime saying how strong he is yet he yet doing nothing to help prevent this mass killings from happening. You may ask, 'What is there to do?.. or what would I do?' I don't have the answer. But someone who thinks he's so wonderful he should be President "should" have an answer. But he has his head up the ass of the NRA so again. He has no answer.

Peace to these victims and families. The two women who died were so young and had so much life left.

Jindal is just following the NRA 3 day period of auto-silence after a mass killing, wrapped in the flag of faux "grieving". No more guns. Fred Sanders Jul 2015 #15

when your candidacy is not even making a blip in the polls. This guy is a sociopath. His approval in the state is in the toilet. Somehow he thinks this will help. Oh yes and the "fact" that god told him to do this.

telling people to step up to the microphone after he talks and talks and talks. He reminds me of Dr. Drumlin in the movie Contact who takes over and tries to get his face on camera for full credit for the work that Jodie Foster did. It's almost like Jindal wants to take credit for orchestrating the shooting itself.

The people at the press conference had the nerve to ask Jindal what he was going to do about controlling guns but of course it took him ten minutes to tell them to shut up with questions like that as he is grieving too much and it's way too early to answer "policy" questions.

*Disconnect* alert: TRUMP and JINDAL appear to be flying high, WTF!1
On a nothing-there-there trip to Laredo, Texas, all he did was hold one of his motor mouth shoot-offs, where he was able to do his you're-fired shtick on the DIAZ-BALART Cuban dude and to turn the union's disinvite into a wingnut paranoid conspiracy about the Feds ordering the union to cancel. He was able to beat Latinos with a stick and think he was doing it with approval of his masses. Then this morning Morning Scabs and Mika Mouse drooled all over him while he blabbed and blabbed himself silly.

And JINDAL has never looked happier. He's so thrilled to be able to show how he could really really handle the Big Job, how he could be right there and just know what everybody is going through!1 Unfortunately, his brand of "comforting" is to recite an abstract laundry list of theoretical emotions everybody is going to go through, but most of all that, "We will get through this!1" right away even before anybody goes through the list. Nary a mention about how many shooting deaths will it take for his wingnut jerks -- no, "jerks" is too mild, more like CRIMINALS and I'm talking about the followers!1 -- to realize we have a gun problem, and nary a hint of a suggestion that a solution is registration like a driver's license.
